Answer:

Families were broken up as people were sold, but extended families of relatives and friends provided stability.

Step-by-step explanation:

In various ways the enslaved African American families were very similar to other families who lived in places and past times under a different kind of circumstances.

Some families were divided as people were sold, but there was stability in some extended families of relatives and friends

Just as some husbands and wives did not get along very well, others loved Children sometimes followed their minds, why others abided by parent’s rules.

Parents mostly, loved their children and wanted to protect the against harm. In some other ways, though the slavery that marked everything about their ways of lives made these families dissimilar or different.
